The projects are reviewed at the Centre by the Empowered Committee  of PMJVK in the Ministry of Minority Affairs. The EC regularly reviews the physical and financial progress of the projects being implemented in the States. In order to avoid parking of funds and accumulation of unspent balance and to ensure timely utilization of funds, States have been given flexibility to use the funds available with them as per the requirement assessed by the States, so that approved projects are completed in time and that projects do not get delayed on account of waiting for the second installment to be released by the Centre. The States can also propose surrendering of unviable projects and request for new projects to be sanctioned in lieu of the unviable projects.
For getting real time information regarding completion of projects under PMJVK, an MOU with National Remote Sensing Centre -ISRO has been signed for geo-tagging of assets created under PMJVK. The project aims to help the Ministry in effective monitoring of the projects under PMJVK and ensure completion and commissioning of the projects on time. Besides, developing a mobile app to function on the web-based Bhuvan geo-portal, the NRSC developed app includes project specific attributes, enables online visualisation of PMJVK assets and analyses and generates reports on the projects. An online module for Utilisation Certificate  submission and monitoring of projects through Quarterly Progress Report has also been developed. The projects have been piloted in the State of Manipur and Karnataka. Besides online monitoring of projects under PMJVK, a Project Monitoring Unit  has also been set up in the Ministry.
